Avesh Khan Opens Up On Final Over Heroics vs RR: "Always Try To Bowl A..."

Lucknow Super Giants seamer Avesh Khan emphasised the importance of focusing on execution rather than worrying about the outcome. He explained that even when watching others play, he gets tense, but when he's bowling, he stays calm and focuses on delivering his best. He doesn't get stressed about conceding runs; instead, he trusts his ability to bowl yorkers and always aims for that delivery.

He believed that Samad had hit only two sixes; the score would have been much lower, making the target more achievable.

He emphasised that Samad's performance drastically changed the game, and a score of 180 resulted in a different outcome. He also pointed out that conceding 20-25 runs in the last over can provide a cushion for the other team, giving them momentum.

"The last overs are crucial. The momentum shifts. He hit four sixes (Abdul Samad). The momentum shifted to our side. If he had hit two sixes, we would have got 165-170. It was only a difference of 10 runs. Whatever I said in the interviews, he changed the game. If he had hit 180, the scenario would have been different.
